Thank you very much. Shawn is now playing for Bloomsburg University. We will hopefully have more videos soon. Check out the rest of the videos on the channel. Thank you very much for your comment again.
Thank you for your comment. Shawn is working hard. We haven't posted in a couple of weeks. He's been busy with high school baseball. We will be posting soon. Thanks again.
Thank you for your comment. Your comment above is why I started this channel. I finally found a fantastic catching coach, which they are very hard to find. I started filming and learning as i go with video editing. We have been doing this for awhile now and its still fun. I'm hoping to help dads/coaches and everyone out there on the web. Shawn is working his butt of and is now visiting colleges and coaches. He is a senior now and its getting crazy. He made the Big 26 for PA all state and did amazing. Check out the latest video on the channel. Sorry we haven't posted anything lately but we have been traveling to colleges and he just started back to school. I'm hoping to post another video very soon with the footage of the colleges. Thanks again and if you need anything else just hit us up on the comments.
Ok so i had my second to last game on the World Series i haven’t caught any balls then after I found your videos I watched them and then my last game came and I really helped my team
I got pretty good at catcher in one offseason, but I just couldn't master blocking the ball. Hated it so much. So I respect the heck out of anyone that does it. Catcher is a really fun position, especially if you have pickoff signs with your pitchers and infielders and if you know how to switch signs up to fool baserunners into stealing. Nothing better than that moment when you know you're getting a fastball outside but the runner who just left thinks it's going to be a curve
Thank you very much for your comment. Shawn has been very busy with the varsity season and I have been working alot. We will be posting a new video soon. We have finally got new merch for the channel. The new link is in the description. We will be putting out the video from the varsity season as well as showing all the merchandise on the online mall on the video as well. Video is coming soon. Catching is the greatest position on the field! Hope to see more comments on the other videos from you.
I’m a young catcher (13 at the moment) and I was wondering if you have any tips on how to more accurately throw down to second. I already have a pretty good pop time (a little less then two seconds) so if you have any tips on accuracy it’d be a great help
Yes, make sure your shoulders are facing your target. As you pop up stay low and and remember its not a throw its a whip. If you have any questions let us know. Check out the rest of the videos and make sure to give them a like. Again, thanks for your comment. Shawn has been busy with high school baseball. There will be more content soon. Season just ended for high school and he has a bunch of college showcases this summer so there will be much more content coming for everyone.
Biggest thing I see with him that he should work on the most is his hip mobility and keeping his glove on the ground instead of trying to glove every ball if he can fix those two things kids gonna be an absolute stud
Thank you for your comment. Check out the latest videos on the channel. He is working hard at what your are talking about. Thank you again for your comment.
Check out all the videos on the channel here. Conditioning is what your need to concentrate on as a catcher. There are alot of video we put out on conditioning. Plus glove control and catching softly. Ask any questions here and we will try to answer them for you!!
Thank you for your comment. Check out the rest of the videos on the channel. Shawn has been very busy with college showcases. Hope to see your comments on the other video’s.
He works really hard and coach Lebo is a great coach. Sorry we haven’t posted any videos in a while. Shawn has been very busy with high school baseball. We will be posting new videos soon. We do have some livestream videos from a couple of games.
Not to be argumentative or anything but as a current catcher of many years in my own opinion it would be better if he left his helmet on when doing the “Blocking and Recovery” drills. Also his chest protector, again in my own opinion, should be almost skin tight. Makes balls in the dirt more likely to land in front of you rather than bounce away. Great work by him though really.
Thank you very much for your comment. We have tighten up his chest protector and that makes a huge difference. Check out the latest videos of him at the college showcases and let us know what you think of his performance. He's working his tail off.
The best option is to pop the helmet off and be able to see all around you. If you do it properly its seconds. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for your comment. Please check out the rest of the videos on the channel and let us know what you think. Give us a thumbs up it really helps the channel out. Thanks again.
Honestly it was almost two and a half years ago and all I did was research catching coaches near me and got lucky and found Mike Lebo. He is a fantastic coach.
Why take time to get rid mask...ya catch all types if pitches with it on...what advantage over rides the time it takes?? IMO the only time is "high" pop ups...plays at plate is better with it on!!
I used 2 piece "cap and mask" and it deff had to be pulled off eveb for plays at plate cause to much body movement would cause it to come off itself making it in ya way! Communication maybe a reason to take it off for bunt but if bunt is in the "circle" i getting it myself without worrying about taking the mask off..lol. I have missed ya vids and not sure why they not popped up for me...deff going back here soon to catch up cause i do like ya kids trainer and the drills he teaches ya son! ALSO seeing the love ya som has for behind the plate makes the vids even better! We just started around (high school for my senior catcher) but middle school still may not have team all because kids grades with the online schooling all year...my 13yearold included! They dont relize 8 of 10 that doing bad would do better if they are outdoor type and let back to doing what they love! My lil one literally been in depression without baseball or even church basketball!
@@bryanrmcnair01 I’m so happy Shawn has been busy with the coach throughout this crap. But Shawn told me just yesterday he wants school to be back to normal. We’ve taken two trips for college showcases down in Florida a couple months back and he did great. The videos are on the channel. Shawn has been with coach Lebo going on 3 years now. He loves the coaches and of course loves the game.
@Catch This things almost back normal...youngest is freshman and been working out Varsity since school started! The middle school coach he had past two years is now the highschool Varsity! He still behind plate but helped us runner up in state "dixie boys" lastyear on the mound! His coach was teammates with MacKenzie Gore and during Holidays we had 5th round pick for Padres in 2020 (Jagger Haynes) working out with us being his lil bro is on the team! Son even caught his bullpen the lastday before he had go back Arizona! We also have Seth Frankoff and Trey Benton both MLB that be at our indoor practice place at anytime they around home! Small town with baseball history...same place produced Otis and Donnell Nixon!
It should only take seconds to get the helmet off and you are able to see much better with it off than on. Of course its a catchers preference but Coach Lebo is training Shawn to pop it off and be able to see much better. Thanks for your comment and talk to you soon.
It is good practice to get the mask off and to be able to see the ball on the ground. You always want to throw the mask off and out of the way. He is practicing good technique in removing the mask and eye contact with the ball in a game situation. Hope this helps you out. Let me know if you have any more questions. Always glad to help out.
It really is just a couple of seconds to take the mask off. You can move quicker and see around you with your mask off. Like anything else practice practice practice. After that its muscle memory and your just react. Hope this help out.
@@woodgirlvideos7855 no worries. He is simulating a bunt and when there is a bunt you take the mask off so u can see the ball. Just always taught that way. Hope this helps. Let me know.
Juat asked the same..."seeing" a bunt better yet the rest if game ya catch 90mph 2 seems and curves that move! Think with new hockey style mask it has become coaches preference! My oldest actually changed his coaches mind after being fussed at for not taking it off for a pop up...my opinion is if its high enough and have time then do so but for bunts and plays at plate then leave it on!
This thought me alot
Glad we are able to help out!! Thanks for your comment.

Thank you very much for the comment. Thank you for Subscribing and we are posting usually every week and a half. Thanks again.
coming from a dude that’s been behind the plate for 14 years… these are drills, drills you do to get better and ahead of the game defensively.
Thank you very much for your comment. Shawn is working very hard. Plus he loves the game and the position.
I’m a catcher and it’s a very difficult position, but I love every second of it.
The position is the best. Its very difficult but it is soo worth the hard work.
You’re the best high school catcher I’ve ever seen
Thank you very much. Shawn is now playing for Bloomsburg University. We will hopefully have more videos soon. Check out the rest of the videos on the channel. Thank you very much for your comment again.

That is incredible. I would have never that about a drill having you back turned. Pretty cool. I love the drill when he threw off his mask.
Yeah, it’s a really good drill. Fast reaction time.
I love this! It was very helpful in teaching my child catching.

Shawn is doing great all he needs to do is to make sure his glove is hitting the ground when he blocks you don’t want a ball to sneak under there

My dad does the thing were hits one hopers at me and I block the ball. Is that a gud thing??

Where did you find a trainer at

As a catcher getting rid of the mask takes time away from me getting to the ball

Is it necessary to remove mask? Seems like an unneeded moved, explanation, thank you.

He is practicing good technique in removing the mask and eye contact with the ball in a game situation. Hope this helps you out. Let me know if you have any more questions. Always glad to help out.
i feel like when blocking and taking off the mask takes a little bit more time why?

Why the mask removal?
Which drill?
@@catchthisSK Just generally...aren't these helmets designed to stay on? I'm trying to understand, not be argumentative.
@@woodgirlvideos7855 no worries. He is simulating a bunt and when there is a bunt you take the mask off so u can see the ball. Just always taught that way. Hope this helps. Let me know.
Juat asked the same..."seeing" a bunt better yet the rest if game ya catch 90mph 2 seems and curves that move! Think with new hockey style mask it has become coaches preference!

Thanks for the comment:) Check out the latest video, its even longer. But he did get it cut. Thinned it out.:)
